There are many ways to collect Charlotte gold. Some people have only a mild interest in these coins and may buy just one or two pieces. Other people are more serious and they have a large number of Charlotte issues in their collection. A small number of Charlotte collectors are obsessives who focus exclusively on these pieces and do not collect anything else. I would like to make some suggestions on how to collect Charlotte gold. In my experience, all of these ideas have merit and none is better than the other. It depends on the tastes and budget of an individual collector to determine which one(s) is right for him.
Buy US paper money.

As collectors' items, banknotes have distinct advantages over stamps and coins: They have a much larger surface area, creating more room for interesting information and attractive artwork. Compared to a coin, a banknote is extremely lightweight and thin, making a large collection much easier to store and transport. Over the postage stamp, the banknote has the advantage of having two sides, and again, a much larger surface area.

The $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle gold coin is a great way for investors to add growth and stability to their current mix of assets. Investors privately acquire this gold coin which has outperformed the stock market over the last 5 years. U.S. Congress was prompted to authorize the mintage of a twenty dollar gold coin in 1849 due to the California gold rush. Up until that time the U.S Mint created only $2.50, $5 and $10 gold coins. The $20 Dollar Liberty gold piece was minted from 1850 to 1907.

There is an interesting fractional currency which is much sought after by collectors. These are private banknotes from the 1800s. Before the US government created a national banknote there were some banks issuing their own money without government backing. However, it was not long before these banks were closed down and the banknotes were counterfeited and altered.

Make sure the seller has a return policy that will allow you a refund if you are not satisfied with the coin. This is especially important if you are buying a non-certified coin. You want the option to return it if your grading service returns a lower grade than you bought it at.
